Be like Jesus
Struggles in
the flesh are a common challenge daily. The crippling challenge is sin. We
allow it to control our lives because we have let or defense down giving the
opportunity for the enemy to spoil or priceless gift giving to us by Jesus Christ.
In the word
of God, Jesus speaks on these challenges. How do we protect the greatest gift
anyone can receive?
First of all we must have salvation
“born again John 3:3 Jesus
answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be
born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.
Let us look
at sins that we must understand that will corrupt the chance of ever being with
the Lord.
1.
Lying:
not telling the truth
2.
I Corinthians 6:9 Know ye not
that the unrighteous shall not
inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters,
nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, 10Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers,
nor extortioners, shall inherit the
kingdom of God. 11And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are
sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the
Spirit of our God.
We have
discovered the sins that tear us away from becoming like Jesus. Because we are
in this world we will see and hear of these sins daily. The bible helps us
maintain a Godly ready mind to be alert on the dangers that are around to avoid
them. Romans 12:2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the
renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and
acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
There will be days that you become a target
of abuse from your family, your co-workers and friends, the bible speaks of
this that you will have to endure all such things, but be strong the Lord. The bible calls them trials. I
Peter 4:12 Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which
is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you:
Don’t be a shame on the new transformation
from darkness unto light. Jesus tells let your light shine before man that they
may see what God has done with you. Matthew
5:16 Let your light so shine before men, that
they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.
